Abstract

Abstract: This study attempts to identify patterns of enculturation of keroncong music in Malang's Maranatha Congregational Church. Utilizing exploratory exposure patterns and instrumental case studies, the research method employs case studies as a research tool. The research identified three patterns of enculturation of keroncong music in Malang's Maranatha Assembly Church: conservative, moderate, and transformative. These three patterns can be utilized effectively and potentially if the following conditions are met: (1) Keroncong music can make a church more authentic if it can serve as a unifying force for the congregation; however, it can also be used to incite conflict. (2) Good arrangement skills are required to combine popular church music with keroncong music, and (3) In addition to the completeness of digital musical instruments, the completeness of instruments and scores of original keroncong music is required to accommodate the playing style of teenagers. (4) There is a need for mutual understanding and respect for the opinions of different groups within the church, as well as the ability to find solutions that are conducive to solving each problem; and (5) An adequate and balanced management plan is required to accommodate every thought and need of each group within the church so that they can exercise their rights and responsibilities in a reasonable manner. Keywords: Enculturation, keroncong music, worship

Abstract

The influence of hedonistic Greek culture in Corinth had shaped the congregation's lifestyle, emphasising self-interest, competition, and division, thereby eroding Christian love in their faith and church fellowship. This situation caused concern for the Apostle Paul because the Corinthian congregation, despite being rich in spiritual gifts, had lost love as the foundation of relationships, ministry, and the unity of the body of Christ. It is in this context that the phrase ‘hoping all things’ in 1 Corinthians 13:7 becomes a theological affirmation that true love originates from Christ and leads believers to live in active, patient, and unifying hope. The purpose of this article is to examine the meaning of ‘hoping all things’ as an element of the character of God's servants in the implementation of Christ's love based on the perspective of 1 Corinthians 13:7. This study uses a descriptive qualitative method through an exegetical study of the biblical text and an analysis of relevant theological literature and scientific journals. The results of the study show that hope in love is not passive, but rather oriented towards Christ as the centre of faith, example of life, and source of unity. This hope encourages servants of God to continue to prioritise love in the midst of conflict, suffering, and differences in the church and society. Thus, expecting everything in Christ's love becomes an important foundation for the formation of the character of servants of God who are humble, have integrity, and are committed to maintaining the unity of the body of Christ.AbstrakPengaruh budaya Yunani yang hedonistik di Korintus telah membentuk pola hidup jemaat yang menekankan kepentingan diri, persaingan, dan perpecahan sehingga nilai kasih Kristiani semakin tergerus dalam kehidupan iman dan persekutuan gerejawi. Kondisi tersebut menimbulkan keprihatinan rasul Paulus karena jemaat Korintus, meskipun kaya karunia rohani, kehilangan kasih sebagai dasar relasi, pelayanan, dan kesatuan tubuh Kristus. Dalam konteks inilah ungkapan “mengharapkan segala sesuatu” dalam 1 Korintus 13:7 menjadi penegasan teologis bahwa kasih sejati bersumber dari Kristus dan menuntun orang percaya untuk hidup dalam pengharapan yang aktif, sabar, dan mempersatukan. Tujuan penulisan artikel ini adalah mengkaji makna “mengharapkan segala sesuatu” sebagai unsur karakter hamba Tuhan dalam implementasi kasih Kristus berdasarkan perspektif 1 Korintus 13:7. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif deskriptif melalui kajian eksegetis teks Alkitab serta analisis literatur teologis dan jurnal ilmiah yang relevan. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahwa pengharapan dalam kasih tidak bersifat pasif, melainkan berorientasi pada Kristus sebagai pusat iman, teladan hidup, dan sumber kesatuan. Pengharapan tersebut mendorong hamba Tuhan untuk tetap mengedepankan kasih di tengah konflik, penderitaan, dan perbedaan dalam gereja maupun masyarakat. Dengan demikian, mengharapkan segala sesuatu dalam kasih Kristus menjadi fondasi penting bagi pembentukan karakter hamba Tuhan yang rendah hati, berintegritas, dan berkomitmen menjaga kesatuan tubuh Kristus.

Abstract

The phenomenon of contemporary church leadership transformation shows a shift from a hierarchical leadership pattern to a more participatory, collaborative, and contextual model, in line with the demands of globalisation, technological advances, and the increasingly complex socio-cultural dynamics of congregations. This study aims to explore how the integration of theology and Christian values can strengthen church missiology in the context of modern leadership. The research method used is a descriptive qualitative approach through literature study, which concludes that Christian leadership theory remains relevant in the contemporary context when rooted in Christian values as an ethical and spiritual foundation. The transformation of church leadership structures in the digital age requires an adaptive and collaborative approach without neglecting theological principles. The integration of theology and Christian values in missiological strategies strengthens the direction of church ministry so that it remains contextual, sustainable, and oriented towards authentic faith formation and social impact. Whereby, the transformation of contemporary church leadership not only requires adaptation to external changes, but must also maintain theological foundations and Christian values as the main footing in missiology. AbstrakFenomena transformasi kepemimpinan gereja kontemporer menunjukkan adanya pergeseran pola kepemimpinan yang sebelumnya bersifat hierarkis menuju model yang lebih partisipatif, kolaboratif, dan kontekstual, seiring dengan tuntutan globalisasi, kemajuan teknologi, serta dinamika sosial budaya jemaat yang semakin kompleks. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengeksplorasi bagaimana integrasi teologi dan nilai-nilai Kristen dapat memperkuat misiologi gereja dalam konteks kepemimpinan modern. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah pendekatan kualitatif deskriptif melalui studi literatur dapat disimpulkan bahwa teori kepemimpinan Kristen tetap relevan dalam konteks kontemporer ketika berakar pada nilai-nilai Kristen sebagai fondasi etis dan spiritual. Transformasi struktur kepemimpinan gereja di era digital menuntut pendekatan adaptif dan kolaboratif tanpa mengabaikan prinsip teologis. Integrasi teologi dan nilai Kristen dalam strategi misiologi memperkuat arah pelayanan gereja agar tetap kontekstual, berkelanjutan, serta berorientasi pada pembentukan iman dan dampak sosial yang autentik. Dimana, transformasi kepemimpinan gereja kontemporer tidak hanya memerlukan adaptasi terhadap perubahan eksternal, tetapi juga harus mempertahankan fondasi teologi dan nilai Kristen sebagai pijakan utama dalam misiologi.
